NAME

     mgp2ps -- generate PostScript file from MagicPoint file

SYNOPSIS

     mgp2ps [-cirtV] [-f psfile] [-p papersize] [-x xmargin] [-y ymargin] mgpfile

DESCRIPTION

     mgp2ps is a converter from MagicPoint file mgpfile to PostScript file.  If -f option is specified, PostScript will be generated to psfile.
     Otherwise, printed to the standard output.

     If there exists foo.eps corresponding to foo.gif (or whatever), the encapsulated PostScript file will be included to the PostScript file
     instead.

     The following options are available:

     -c      Generate color PostScript file (experimental).  By default mgp2ps will generate monochrome postscript file.

     -i      Paint inside icon symbols.

     -r      Stack the paper in reverse order.

     -V      Be verbose.

     -f psfile
	     Pathname to put the PostScript output.

     -p papersize
	     papersize specifies the size of the paper to be used.  a3, a4, a5, b5, A3, A4, A5, B5, letter, legal, ledger, tabloid, statement,
	     executive, folio, quarto and 10x14 are available.	Default size is a4.

     -x xmargin

     -y ymargin
	     xmargin and ymargin specifies length of the margin area around the edge of the paper.

     -t      Use truetypefont instead of psfont (ASCII font only).

     -e      Specify encodings. At this moment, "iso-8859-1", "latin1", "iso-8859-2" "and latin-2" are supported as encodings.

     -m      emulate "%pause" directive.

     -X engine
	     Do not use rendering engine, specified by engine.	engine can be only FreeType so far.

     -g level
	     specify the distance level between lines. If level is 0, the result will be close to the result of xft2 rendering. If others, it will
	     be close to the result of other rendering engines.

NAME

       psresize - multiple pages per sheet

SYNOPSIS

       psresize [ -wwidth ] [ -hheight ] [ -ppaper ] [ -Wwidth ] [ -Hheight ] [ -Ppaper ] [ -q ] [ infile [ outfile ] ]

DESCRIPTION

       Psresize  rescales  and centres a document on a different size of paper.  The input PostScript file should follow the Adobe Document Struc-
       turing Conventions.

       The -w option gives the output paper width, and the -h option gives the output paper height, normally specified in  cm  or  in  to  convert
       PostScript's  points (1/72 of an inch) to centimeters or inches.  The -p option can be used as an alternative, to set the output paper size
       to a3, a4, a5, b5, letter, legal, tabloid, statement, executive, folio, quarto, 10x24 or _glibc, where latter one means the format  of  the
       current locale. The default output paper size is _glibc.

       The -W option gives the input paper width, and the -H option gives the input paper height.  The -P option can be used as an alternative, to
       set the input paper size.  The default input paper size is _glibc.

       Psresize normally prints the page numbers of the pages output; the -q option suppresses this.

EXAMPLES

       The following command can be used to convert a document on A4 size paper to letter size paper:

       psresize -PA4 -pletter in.ps out.ps

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       LC_ALL, LC_PAPER
	      These variables are specifying the papertype when used paper is _glibc.  For details see the locale(7) manpage.
